[earni74]

Hi All, I have always thought this was a French bomb utilising a 7.5cm H.E projectile, I have been informed that this is a Jouhandeau-Deslandres model 15...…….can anyone post more information / photos of this piece, thankyou

Yes it is, nice and rare ww1 french mortar projectile 75mm Jouhandeau Deslandres (a 120mm launcher was also designed)





37mm cart. propellant :

once again Minenaz you have come up trumps as we say, one more question, is the cartridge 37x94mm or a longer one and did it have a special headstamp
Thanks
Mick

sorry, no other info on the case. Seems to be the common 94mm with cap. For the 120 the case seems longer
